This team is for our 7-8 year olds (age as of May 1st). This level introduces hitting off of a pitching machine. In addition to enhancing their running, batting, fielding and throwing, our Kings will focus on learning the following:

Batting safety - how to protect yourself at the plate

How to position yourself at the plate

How to hit a pithed ball

Defensively, players will learn the strategy of "force" outs

How to catch pop flys

How to tag up on fly balls

This level is designed to prepare them for "kid" pitch

Our league games are played with R.B.I. sponsored by the Girls and Boys Club of Greater Kansas City and the majority of our tournaments will be sanctioned by USSSA.
